I have 4 applications in the not installed list.
I choose install for all 4 and give permissiin to install, the applications are not installing, they keep showing up in the not installed list.
What could be the issue.
The problem does not go away even after reboot.

Try signing into Google Talk and then go back into the Market. I'm not positive about Honeycomb, but previous versions of Android have used Google Talk as a type of authenticator that the device is registered to a specific user.
I've had this problem as well, sometimes dis/re-connecting to wifi works.
Check your app drawer, they are probably installed. I've been having this problem too. They show up as not installed in the market, yet I'm using them. Use the market report form, and tell them what's happening. I did and they asked for more deets and screenshots.
What I've noticed: If you check the box to add a shortcut, it doesn't happen
If you click the app that says it's not installed, it will show buttons to install and uninstall. Tap install and the list updates, even though the thing was definitely installed before. It has only happened with paid apps, but that may be a coincidence.
Again, report this stuff so they can address it.
Hello everyone,
I received a UNIDEN 7" tablet as a gift. 512 ram, 1ghz cup.
This is running android 4.0.4
I am unable to get the google play app store application to install on this device.
Or just the android market itself.
Does anyone have ny idea as to the correct apk file to install so I can start downloading applications?
I have looked at every installed application and there is no app store installed at all.
I have been searching online and trying different things, I can not seem to find any answers and can not seem to fin an app store apk that works...
Thank you for the help y'all
You need to use one of the available app markets on the tablet. The Google play store is not compatible with the device. If you use your browser app, you should come to a Uniden device help menu. Their compatible app markets will under downloads, I believe.

Thats sad to hear google play is not compatible with the device.
You would think that because it is an "Android" tablet, that it would be able to run the google play app, if I can find where to get it.
I did find the app store selection icon, it was almost so well hidden that it almost did not exist. I have an app store that interfaces with google play market, but unfortunately I can't buy any apps, it does not interface with the google play purchase system. I can only download free & trial apps...fail
----------------
Now I'm just working on finding how to root this thing. I'm hoping a generic android 4.0.4 root will work, hopefully it won't be device specific...lol
I don't think there is a stable way to root those. I had mine for an hour before I took it back. I couldn't find any root methods or aftermarket firmware support for it. I quickly lost interest in looking any further when I couldn't find anything on cyanogenmod's forums or xda's.

I just looked on Uniden's website and they don't even have that tablet advertised. I wish I could have been more help.

If you are talking about a UTAB71 mine was rooted out of the box
I followed the directions here: the-digital-reader.com/2012/04/07/how-to-install-google-apps-gplay-etc-on-polaroi-pmid701
then installed superSU and ES File Explorer and removed the old market place apx and added the phonesky apk in /system/app
play store seems to be working, but i haven't purchased anything from it yet, free downloads work in either the new or old versions
Does it function any better?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
None of those things make the tablet work better overall, but following the directions from the link leave you with an older version of market that does not fully work.
Replacing that as I described seems to give a working current version. Still havent had need to buy something, but I did trigger installs from the play site and other than not waking the device automaticly that worked correctly as well.
For a $60 piece of hardware I don't think it does too bad. Lags here and there, but plays some of the games my older phones seem to choke on quite well.

I wasn't aware that I could have rooted it with the polaroid method. I'm much more used to messing around with phones, which as far as I know have to be rooted at a model specific level.

As I understand it the southern telecom distributed devices are basically rooted from the factory, you just have to get some tools on-board to make use of it.
I am not an expert by any means, just stuff I found through google.

nice that its rooted has anyone tried to install the 4.1 or 4.2 jelly bean updates to this i have not found anything about this yet
I can't seem to find any way to get to a recovery on the device so I haven't tried much more than I described other than normal non-root stuff.

how do I access the system directory again. It has been a while. I remember doing it on a couple phones but cant figure it out on this tab.I have supersu and root explorer but cant fin the system folder
---------- Post added at 02:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 AM ----------
ok I found how to access the vendor apk with root explorer but I cannot figure out how to replace the file with the phonesky apk
Mine didn't have a phonesky apk. I D/L the latest play apk I could find on here and renamed it before placing it in the directory then rebooted. If yours has one I believe you might have to rename it first but I don't know for certian.
If I remember correctly this only worked for me after installing the old market apk as described in the link I posted then uninstalling the old market from applications.

Every time I try its built in system update feature, it crashes and says system fail or whatever.
I found it is rooted with the root checker app and using terminal IDE and typing SU it shows the # sign...
I'm trying to make superuser work, it does not seem to "request superuser permissions" when a root required app runs, the app will crash.
Still working on getting this thing to work how we want it to work.
PS: If I can get it to run good and maybe overclock, I might either upgrade android and maybe even install Ubuntu as well, or just scrap all of it and install windows 8, havent decided and looking into it much other than it can be done with some tablets; as far as our tablets, idk. lol
i will try again later when I get some time. The old market does work just a bit buggy. do I just delete the market apk in the system apps and then past the new apk there uninstall market and reboot? I have tried this all exept rebooting before first opening play. when it installs new play opens and crashes. Not sure if I am replacing the file corectly as it has been a while since I have done anything like that. a recovery would be awesome. I wish I knew more about since I dont have to wory about breaking cause I can take it back still

and what do I rename the apk to. do I name it as the one installed or phonesky. I may have the wrong apk( I have tried to install many even the jellybean one that are named phonesky)

I've given up on google play, I had it work a few times but it was so bugged up and laggy/crashing that it just wasn't worth it. I went and got a Mobile1Market app or whatever it is called...
I tried so many ways of making google play work, its unbelievable, I even tried modifying the akp file, which totally never worked except 1 time when it opened then nothing happened...
You would think that because its android, it should just work, but I guess that things are just too messed up for a reasonable sense of compatibility on android tablets...

You should take yours back to the store if it's giving you that many issues. I tried to manually add the play apk but it never opened, then I saw this thread and followed the directions in the third post and I now have the most current working version of Play.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2000720
I was also able to overclock to 1.2 using SetCPU.
i found a good method to get playstore on. when i gwt a bit of time i will fin the links. it is easy and has step by step insructions. worked for me and evwn updated the store on its own. so i think it is a good way to do it since it will update... hopefully i can find the linka again. it is all gapps so you will have maps and other crap as well
as always use at own risk I am not responsible for damage etc etc....
here is the market link I used http : / / db.tt/qSnXMWyJ
" http : / / db.tt/SjwfVfUB is the link to root,u need to extract the files and u need to open it up after extracted and look for the "runme.bat" and double click it,look over what it is saying to you and when u are done doing all of the things u hit enter it will do its thing and it may reboot once or twice but when all done it will be rooted "
I don't think you need the second link. It is for root. This is not my work just sharing. It is from a forum on a klu lt7033 tablet. I needed to root it and install market and then I tried the manual install method that is included in the directions and it worked for the uniden as well. you will need root explorer or something along those lines. this has more than just market. don,t know if it is full gapps but includes about 19 apps. I would install them all and afterwords take out what you dont want. just remember after you place the files where they go do not install them just reboot then all should be there. I have only used the playstore and have not checked to see if the other apps run (maps, youtube, google talk......)
enjoy and good luck
I first uninstalled the garbage Amazon marketplace that kept freezing up from the get it go. I would suggest uninstalling any market app you are using before doing this.
1. Download this ZIP file to your computer.
2. Open the Zip file on your computer and copy the contents to a folder on your Polaroid/Uniden tablet via a USB cable. Then unplug your tablet.
3. Once you’ve done that, open the file manager on your tablet and go to the folder where you put the files. Try to install the following apps in this order (double click on the files in order to run them):
OneTimeInitializer-signed.apk
SetupWizard.apk
vending-3.1.3-signed.apk
As a 4th step you might want to press the home button, select the checkmark which says “open always with”, and then select Launcher. This will guarantee that whenever you press the home button you will see the home screen and not be prompted with a menu.
Also an up to date Play store here: [APK] Google Play Store v3.5.16 + MOD - xda-developers
Ever since I rooted I cannot install any apps outside of Google Play using a few different apk installer apps. I do have the box checked to install from unknown sources. When I click on the install button in the apk installer app nothing happens. However, the cancel button does work. I was able to install apps this way before rooting. And I have tried installing several different apps so it cannot be bad downloads. Even the new Facebook download could not be installed.
Can anyone think of anything else to check?
Have you tried putting them directly into sytem/app and rebooting?
Thats a new one on me.... I did notice after rooting that sideloaded apps took about twice as long to install as play store or amazon apps. How long have you left it to install?

It never installed, the "Install" button did not register when clicked. It was as if the installer was telling me that installing was not an option. The "cancel" button did work and that is how I got out of the application. I have tried this several times with several different apks using a few different installers.
I'm having the exact same probleem. Have you found the solution yet?

Hello -- was this matter ever resolved? I'm having the exact same problem.
Rooted Galaxy Note on Jellybean.
As I recall, it happened once earlier, and I think I was able to resolve it, but for the life me can't remember what I did.
I finally got it to work.
1) Force stop Google Play Store.
2) Clear data Google Play store
3) Uninstall updates Google Play Store
I was then able to updates my other apps.

often when you are on wrong date or time zone play store not connect errors show.
Ty so much, this solved my problem
For me the culprit was Twilight
I can't seem to install my downloaded APK files in HTC 10. . I got the message "No application found for this file type" even if I already ticked the check mark for "Allow installation of apps from unknown sources". Any idea why?

How did you figure out which app is the culprit? I have a lot of apps in my phone.

I don't know about you guys, but I used to have all app links (play store links, youtube links, etc.) and downloads start in the stock browser by default in MIUI 6, with no way to open them in app. After posting on the MIUI english forums, I found a temporary workaround.
You'll have to uninstall the stock Browser app (I prefer Chrome anyway). Then clicking on app links or download links will give you the app chooser dialog.
(If you are unwilling to uninstall your stock Browser, move on...I can't help you...)
For this, you'll need root access (if you got MIUI 6 you're on the Dev fw, and have root access anyway). Use an app with root uninstaller capabilities (I use ES File Explorer)
(Oh, and the stock Browser will get reinstalled after every update, so you'll have to repeat this every week till the Xiaomi devs actually fix this)
EDIT: 4.9.26 update DID NOT reinstall Stock Browser for some reason...didn't have to do all this again!
Freeze/Disable
For me, It reinstalls the stock browser at every boot/reboot. Hence, uninstalling didn't solve the problem.
The only solution I've found so far is to Freeze the app using Titanium Backup. (needs Donate version)
Let me know if the app can be freezed using some other free app. Thanks
You can also set chrome as default in setting..that way you don't need to uninstall stock browser
Setting Chrome as default doesn't help. It will still open external links in stock browser.
Please try to understand the problem @sbr
That is why we are having a discussion here. Freezing is the only solution.

even with chrome set as default the stock browser will still intercept certain types of links. usually those shortened links for youtube,maps,play store.
i did the same too. uninstall after every reboot
